Before & After Photos

This Portsmouth, VA homeowner's HVAC has been running constantly. They've been struggling to keep their home at a comfortable temperature in the hot summer months and through the cold of winter. With high energy bills, on top of it, they're ready to solve this problem for good. 

After a thorough evaluation, We worked with the family to determine the best solution for them and their home would be to air seal the attic, seal around can lights (recessed lighting) and utility penetrations, air seal the chimney, add blown-in cellulose insulation to achieve an R-38 and install a David Lewis Pull Down Stair Cover to prevent air loss around the attic access. 

This resulted in the homeowner feeling a difference in the home the same day the work was done and noticing their HVAC turn off! They will start to see a reduction in their energy bills as their HVAC will not need to run as much to keep the home comfortable. 

This Chesapeake, VA client has been experiencing high energy bills and sweating ductwork in their attic. They chose to insulate the attic from the rafters with Closed Cell Spray Foam Insulation. This brings the HVAC into the conditioned living space and helps to protect the ductwork from the extreme temperatures of the attic allowing it to perform better. Not only does air sealing and insulating the attic reduce conditioned air loss, but it also reduces energy bills and helps to make the home more comfortable. 

This Williamsburg, VA attic has several dormers. As part of air-sealing and insulating the attic space, we needed to install PVs (the gray rectangles you see between the rafters) to ensure that no insulation fell into the soffits and so that proper ventilation can be maintained in the attic. Then we installed an R-38 of Cellulose Insulation. 

This Saluda basement had major water issues in the basement. The WaterGuard Drainage System and SuperSump were installed to help keep this basement dry ALL the time. 

As part of a basement waterproofing solution, we install a CleanSpace vapor barrier on the basement walls. The liner is sealed at all seams and mechanically attached to the walls. It directs the water that seeps through the foundation walls down into the WaterGuard drainage track and ultimately to the sump pump and away from the home's foundation.
